102 Skillman Street, Brooklyn, NY 11205

The four-unit residential building at 102 Skillman Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Gershon Mayer and constructed in 2003, has experienced persistent regulatory compliance issues over the past several years.

Most notably, there is an ongoing pattern of violations related to bedbug reporting, with open violations recorded in April 2024, March 2023, 2022, and 2021, indicating the building has failed to file the required annual bedbug reports as mandated by Housing Maintenance Code. The building has also had several notable safety compliance issues, including a C-class violation in 2021 regarding missing notice about heating system access, a C-class violation specific to a defective self-closing door in the entrance to Apartment 4, and multiple A-class violations from 2019 requiring the posting of various safety notices regarding gas leak procedures and smoke detector requirements.

While some past issues have been resolved, such as a B-class violation regarding defective self-closing doors in public hall stairs and a fire retardant plaster repair issue in the cellar, the building's ongoing violations suggest continued challenges with regulatory compliance. On a positive note, recent rodent inspections have shown improved conditions, with the most recent inspection in June 2024 resulting in a "Passed" status, following an initial rat activity finding in October 2019 and two subsequent passed inspections in November 2022 and October 2024.
